Trump Signs Order Designating Antifa as Domestic Terrorist Group

President Donald Trump signed an executive order designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist group, as his administration moves to intensify its scrutiny of left-leaning organizations following the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

The order, which the president signed on Monday, directs all relevant federal agencies to use “all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations — especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa or any person claiming to act on behalf of Antifa.”
